Is The Next Great On On The Way In Michigan?
Photo by Scott Gries/Getty Images LeBron James was the last guy people thought was a surefire great. Is the next one coming?One of the great things in basketball is the anticipation of a truly great player who is about to arrive.
In the past we’ve seen it with guys like Wilt Chamberlain, Lew Alcindor, later Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and most recently Lebron James.
Everyone understood James was going to be great and he was. He lived up to every expectation.
Some don’t of course. Lenny Cooke bombed. He was supposed to be even better than LeBron. And of course there was Sweetpea, aka Lloyd Daniels.
